About Thea Sweet girl only

Meet Thea, a sweet 8-year-old Dachshund mix who's ready for a fresh start. Weighing about 30 lbs, she was rescued from a breeding situation that left her with 65+ other dogs. Now, her days of motherhood are over, and it’s time for her to experience what being a beloved pet truly feels like. Currently weaning her final litter, Thea will be available for adoption in late October, after her spay surgery and some well-deserved rest. She deserves all the comforts—like a soft bed, gentle hands, and yummy treats. With a loving demeanor, Thea gets along well with other dogs and children, although she isn’t suited for homes with cats. Despite her challenging past, she remains incredibly sweet and is eager for a family to call her own. If you think you can provide the loving home she’s been waiting for, don’t hesitate to start the adoption process.
